When an iSCSI connection is closed, spdk_iscsi_conn_stop_poller()
is called in spdk_iscsi_conn_destruct() or
spdk_iscsi_conn_check_shutdown().
However, through both paths, g_num_connections[] is decremented
twice:
(1) in spdk_iscsi_conn_stop_poller()
(2) in spdk_iscsi_conn_free()
This behavior makes g_num_connections[] negative unexpectedly and
for some cases load balancing does not work and the same CPU is
always selected.
How to fix:
spdk_iscsi_conn_stop_poller() is called in the following functions:
- spdk_iscsi_conn_check_shutdown()
- spdk_iscsi_conn_destruct()
- spdk_iscsi_conn_handle_idle().
[Idea 1]
Remove the code to decrement g_num_connections[] from
spdk_iscsi_conn_free().
[Idea 2]
Remove the code to decrement g_num_connections[] from
spdk_iscsi_conn_stop_poller(). Add the code to decrement
g_num_connections[] to __add_idle_conn().
[Idea 1] is simple because just only one line is deleted.
[Idea 2] may be more symmetric than [Idea 1] but to find the right
place to add the code in __add_idle_conn() is not clear and
difficult.
Hence [Idea 1] is proposed.
[Idea 1] may not be the optimal one and more refactoring may be
done.
